Details:
Lightweight, soft, and easy to layer, Dalestølen offers warmth without the heft of a traditional ski sweater. The regular fit, J-sleeves, and quarter-zip high neck create a comfortable, sporty silhouette in sizes S–3XL.
Wear it as a mid layer for skiing and outdoor adventures or on its own for travel, work, and everyday life.
Design Notes:
The Off White and Navy palette gives the historic Cortina pattern a bright, crisp look that feels distinctly Scandinavian. Traditional Norwegian patterning meets a streamlined quarter-zip silhouette, creating a sweater with plenty of heritage but none of the time-capsule effect.
It’s polished enough for business casual, relaxed enough for weekends, and right at home après-ski.
History:
Dalestølen draws its pattern from Dale of Norway’s first official Olympic ski sweater, created for the 1956 Winter Olympics in Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy.
The Cortina design became one of Dale’s most recognizable Norwegian patterns. Dalestølen gives that winter-sport heritage a lighter, modern merino construction while remaining designed and knitted in Norway.
